“Nope,” Wonwoo chuckles. “This place always gives me good energy,” He says while he rubs his palms against the sleeves of his sweater, breathing out vapor in the air.

Y/n notices his mannerisms which makes her tilt her head, “Are you feeling cold?”

“Yeah,” Wonwoo sighs. He doesn’t notice y/n looking at him strangely for the nth time this day. Maybe it’s just her habit, he thought.

However, y/n couldn’t purely understand Wonwoo. So she continues to stare and observe how he rubs friction on his palms and how vapor escapes his nose as if his insides were warm. “You’re not supposed to be feeling cold,” She finally whispers to him.

Wonwoo looks at her, mouth forming an ‘o’ as he noticed how she was only wearing a shirt and some sweatpants unlike him who was wrapped up all warmly. “Y/n I—“

 “What are you, Wonwoo?” She quickly stands up and takes a few steps back as if she was afraid of him.

Wonwoo stands up as well, starting to feel frustrated, “What do you mean what am I? What do you think I am?”

“I don’t know,” Y/n looks around, cautious that anyone might hear them, “You have the same mark as I do but it’s black, you know who the Guardian is, you must be an angel like me but—“

“But?” Wonwoo’s patience was wearing thin.

“But why are you warm?” Y/n quickly goes near Wonwoo and puts her hands against his chest, making him brush them off as quickly as he can, “And you have something beating in your chest...”

Y/n was on the verge of tears. She was too frustrated and too confused that all she could feel was the urge to cry. Wonwoo was the same, he was biting his lip back and running his hands through his hair roughly. Y/n hits her breaking point, “We’re both celestials, so why can’t you just tell me anything?”

“Because I don’t know what to tell you!” Wonwoo yells suddenly, making y/n back away from him. “I don’t know what happened to me,” his voice starts to break, “All I know is that I shouldn’t exist anymore.” He finally cries.

He raises his hand and points at his wrist, “We shouldn’t exist.” Wonwoo’s voice has gotten soft. He no longer knew what to feel at this point. “Do you even know what this mark truly means? Do you really think it’s for second chances?” He scoffs, slowly walking towards y/n while she continues to back away, “It’s not. This mark is— ” .

“Y/n, go back inside.”

Y/n looks behind her to see Michael standing by the doorway, looking as angry as he was earlier this day. Seeing his familiar face made tears quickly fall from her eyes and her lips to quiver. She bit her lip to keep it from quivering, nodded, and went back inside.

Wonwoo closes his eyes and covers his face with his hands. He felt everything that he didn’t want to feel simultaneously; anger, distress, frustration, sadness, longing, fear... “I’m sorry,” He whispers.

Unlike the tough front that Michael showed y/n, he was rather soft towards seeing Wonwoo on the verge of a breakdown. “Come here,” He tells Wonwoo as he opens his arms for him.

Wonwoo quickly walks over to Michael and hugs him. His sobs were quiet, but Michael could feel all the pain Wonwoo concealed throughout the years. “It’s okay. I’m the one who should be sorry,” Michael whispers as he rests his chin on top of Wonwoo’s head.

Wonwoo coughs in the middle of his choked sobs and hugs Michael tighter, “I thought I’d never see you again, Uncle.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t find you,” Michael finally breaks into tears, something that both Wonwoo or y/n could never imagine, “You must have turned completely mortal, haven’t you?”

Wonwoo silently nods and continues to cry on Michael’s shoulders. Michael sighs while he caresses Wonwoo’s hair, “It’s okay, I have you now.” He coos, “But you must remember that no matter what happens, you must never tell anyone about what happened in the past.”

“Okay,” Wonwoo whispers. Michael sighs and cups Wonwoo’s face to make the young man look at him, “And especially not in this sacred place.”
